New Hemisphere, New Life
I'M IN SOUTH AFRICA. I can hardly believe that myself considering how long this whole process has taken and the seemingly unending list of obstacles to overcome...So, I've bought the ticket, I'm getting on the plane and I'm thinking prematuraly, "it's over, finally, it's all over'...Well, its just begun really.
I'm in a little town on the very southern coast of South Africa called Knysna. It just occured to me the other day that I'm closer to the south Pole than I am to home...In other words I'm really far away from anything familiar. I've got a job here in Knysna as a landscape architect working for a development called the Thesen Islands...http://www.thesenislands.co.za/ Its an incredible opportunity and I'm looking forward to the challenges...
So many things to try to describe...I'm still waiting to get a computer set up where I can upload some pictures.
